The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously ruled that prosecuting a Texas marijuana user for owning guns violates the Second Amendment. The decision, based on the vagueness of the term "unlawful user" in the relevant law, does not address all potential gun restrictions for drug users.
The Justice Department announced over 30 regulatory changes to gun laws, including repealing a 2024 Biden administration rule that required background checks at gun shows.

Robert Cekada was confirmed as ATF director, the first confirmed leader since 2006.
